Missed last week’s update so let’s get to the details:

“Does a Body Good” – 95%
“Life in the Fast Lane” – 30%
“The Burial Plot” – 60%
“The Man’s Got a Real Backscratcher” – 20%
“Eli Mendoza is a Dead Man” – 80%

That’s what’s done so far. Not what I was aiming for, not what I was hoping for, but it’s the truth.

What I do on Little Fears projects when deadlines get missed one too many times is set a done-by date where, if the product is not out, I promise to release it for free. So far, that’s motivated me to finish every project where I’ve set that deadline.

Since a bunch of you are already owed Five-Story Drop, I can’t do that. But what I can do it this:

If Five-Story Drop isn’t out in PDF by Friday, June 14th, each and every Kickstarter backer at the $45 or higher pledge level will receive the third Streets of Bedlam book (tentatively titled Judges + Kings) in print and PDF for free when it releases including shipping (which will be sent separately from SoB and 5SD; it will not delay your already-due shipment).

So, there ya go. That’s the ultimatum. I’ve yet to miss one of these. And I don’t intend on starting now.

June 14th. Mark it on your calendars.

See you next Friday.
